About our uPVC repair in East Grinstead
The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Whether it’s scratches from ladders and furniture and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can help.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Questions from East Grinstead
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you come to East Grinstead?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to East Grinstead. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What else we do in East Grinstead
Why repair rather than replace?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
